Foreign Currency Statement Print

In a system configured to use foreign currency the statement print is printed by default in the base currency of the system with a run-time option to print the statement in the currency of the sales/purchase account. When printing the statement options are available to print the currency of the account (printing the currency code from the account record) and to print the currency title of the currency of the account but no option was available to report the currency of print. Release 6.5 now includes additional parameters for print settings to report the currency of print.
